My physical training is actually paying dividends. Today's run was great and I feel so refreshed! My arm muscles are also improving steadily. That is so important for SOC. I am thoroughly pleased with myself. Hope I don't succumb to some mental barrier during BMT again. Physical is so much mental and so little strength.

I feel I have done enough in my 'staying out' time. I always wished for more time out of camp in the first few months of military life. I got my wish and I really made good use of it. I did what I wanted to do and even what I didn't thought of doing. I am so glad. Of course, thank God for this arrangement. Sometimes I feel that my life is already all set up for me. No matter what obstacle I face, God would make it such that I finish at the ending point with the best result via the easiest route. So far, I have managed to overcome most of the obstacles in my life not so much through my own will power but more by luck. It is true and I don't care why it is so, just that it is so. Hah! Understand? Life has been made much more interesting this way because I never know what is in store for me next.
